Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
Improper Control of Generation of Code ('Code Injection') vulnerability in Scott Paterson Easy Stripe easy-stripe allows Remote Code Inclusion.This issue affects Easy Stripe: from n/a through <= 1.1.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

A code injection vulnerability in the Easy Stripe plugin (versions through 1.1) allows remote code inclusion, enabling attackers to inject and execute malicious code on the server. The CVSS 10 score indicates trivial exploitation with complete compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

MitigationImmediately update to a patched version if available; if no patch exists, disable or remove the plugin and migrate to an alternative payment solution until remediation is available.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Verify Easy Stripe plugin is installed
    Access the WordPress admin dashboard and navigate to Plugins > Installed Plugins. Look for 'Easy Stripe' in the list of installed plugins. Alternatively, check the /wp-content/plugins/ directory for a folder named 'easy-stripe' or similar.
    Affected if The plugin is present in the WordPress installation
  2. Confirm plugin is active
    In the WordPress admin under Plugins > Installed Plugins, check if Easy Stripe shows as 'Active' rather than 'Inactive' or 'Must-Use'.
    Affected if The plugin is active and accessible to the web
  3. Determine installed version
    In the WordPress admin Plugins list, click on the Easy Stripe plugin to view details, or check the plugin's main PHP file for a 'Version' header comment. The version may also appear in the plugin's readme.txt or in the plugin directory name.
    Affected if Version is 1.1 or any version lower than 1.1 (versions through 1.1 are affected)
  4. Identify vulnerable plugin endpoints
    Examine the Easy Stripe plugin directory for PHP files that handle user input and may allow code inclusion. Look for files using include(), require(), eval(), or file_get_contents() with user-controlled parameters. Common vulnerable patterns include files named callback.php, ipn.php, webhook.php, or similar payment-related handlers.
    Affected if Plugin contains PHP files with dynamic includes or eval statements that can be manipulated via URL parameters
  5. Check web server logs for exploitation attempts
    Review access logs (typically in /var/log/apache2/ or /var/log/nginx/) for requests to Easy Stripe plugin paths with suspicious parameters. Look for patterns like ?file=, ?path=, or eval()-like strings in URLs targeting the plugin.
    Affected if Logs show requests attempting to exploit code injection in the plugin

Environment is affected if Easy Stripe plugin version 1.1 or lower is installed and active, enabling remote code execution through the plugin's vulnerable code inclusion mechanisms.
